Spring Break

Mr. T and Mr. C are home on spring break this week.  Grass hasn't grown under these two feet nor their friends.  I bought The SM this book:


The boys have been busy.  As I watched them build a potato cannon I wondered if I should get the first aid kit or my camera!  As you can see, I grabbed my camera.








Ready to launch!






I got the biggest kick out of watching the boys run off to see how far their potatoes had launched.




I wonder what tomorrow will bring...............

    That looks like so much fun, you buying the book pretty much makes you the coolest Mom ever.

      I put a note on the book that said something to the effect of, "Have fun going ballistic"! :D Proof that this was on The SM's wish list for Amazon is proof that men are boys in bigger bodies.

    I am puzzled. So, does somebody stick his mouth into the big end and blow - really, really hard???

      They are spraying cologne which is highly flammable into the end, ceiling the end, and then igniting a spark. :D But don't tell Kristen. :D

      Ah, it look so safe! And they are big boys....and you had the phone in the other hand so you could call 911, so everything was covered and all good.

      SUNBURN???? It was -15 degrees celsius (I have no idea what that is in fahrenheit) here last night. Ugh. Milder temperatures would make me smile.

      I just looked at the forecast. It would seem our bout of 'spring' is short lived. Down go the temperatures again........
